Hi

If you are still gettin that 500 error it means that there is a problem with your Rewriterule. try knocking off and adding the rules one by one.
for eg:
the commented rule below works fine on my localhost but not the public server. the secon rule works fine on the server. and it used to give me a 500 error.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

#RewriteRule ^(.*?)\.html$ index.php?q=$1
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ index.php?q=$1

Hope you get a little help by this

Thanks
